Jerez Test Session, Day 4


By Renault F1
February 13 2010

The Renault F1 Team completed a fourth and final day of testing in Jerez with Robert Kubica.

Circuit: Jerez de la Frontera

Length: 4.4 km

Driver: Robert Kubica

Chassis: R3002

Total Laps: 85

Fastest Lap: 1:20.358

Summary of the day: The first half of the day was damp, causing the team to complete limited running. Conditions improved in the afternoon allowing Robert to complete some long runs and set-up work.

Robert Kubica: “We were unlucky again with the weather this morning but it was dry in the afternoon and we managed to improve the car quite a bit. Each day of testing the car feels better and the progress we have made this week confirms that we are moving in the right direction.”

Alan Permane, Chief Engineer: “It was a slow start to the day as there was quite a bit of rain so we didn’t do too much running in the morning. We did a few runs on wet tyres to check the car out and then waited for the track to dry. As soon as the track was ready for slicks we went out and worked through a set-up programme and made really good progress. We’ve managed to improve the performance and the drivability, and Robert’s finished the day very happy with things. ”

Wednesday 17 February: Vitaly Petrov
Thursday 18 February: Vitaly Petrov
Friday 19 February: Robert Kubica
Saturday 20 February: Robert Kubica

Not sure if Kubica being in the middle of the pack in testing is positive. Petrov, I can forgive.

Well, testing times are usually meaningless, so no reason to worry about smiling smiley

Well it could be worst. It does look more positive than last year.
